My new R1000 is at the bike shop ready to be picked up. I ride mountain bikes mostly but decieded to get a road bike and there are so many pedals for the road bike. I need help!

Why not use the same type of pedals? It may not be aesthetically correct, but it's more practical.

I use MTB pedals on my road bike. That way I can use my MTB shoes when I anticipate having to do some walking (going to the store, going to work) and road shoes on other rides. Having common pedals just simplifies things for me.

Love them and not having to switch out cleats or have multiple sets of shoes.

I always seem to over look the simple and best answer! Thanks

Did you get the black or the lime-green R1000? I have the '03 sorta Saeco gray/red.

I just picked got my new R3000 in Metallic Blue. The strange thing is that it has a Saeco sticker on it. C'dale's website doesn't show any blue Saeco models.

I got the Black R1000 today, My roommate ordered the lime-green R1000 at the same time but Cannondale doesn't have any and won't be making any untill Feb. 28th. Which is no big deal I guess because the weather isn't great here now anyway.

Ever since they sponsored our university team, I've been a big fan of Speedplays. They're pricey, I guess, but I've never had a problem with them (the road pedals, that is) and they look oh-so-cool.

Once you get past the initial adjustment phase (people compare it to walking on ice), you'll never go back to standard pedals...plus the weight is minimal.
